First International Conference on the Material Point Method for Modelling Large Deformation and Soil-Water-Structure Interaction

10th January 2017 - 13th January 2017

Delft, Netherlands

Abstract

The aim of the conference is to provide an international forum for presenting and discussing the latest developments in both the fundamental basis and the applicability of state-of-the-art computational methods that can be effectively used for solving a variety of large deformation problems in geotechnical and hydraulic engineering. Special focus is on the numerical modelling of interaction between soils, water and structures where the interface and transition between solid and fluid behaviour plays an essential role.
